h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I like the second tier of the English football league, despite it's ever changing and generally very silly name.

It's a great league where everyone can, on their day, beat anyone else. Even Leeds United

So to this end I've made up a list that is wholly made up of games from the Championship. Except, as earlier promised, Leeds United


Sheffield Wednesday v Wolves
Derby v Cardiff
Norwich v Stoke
Preston v Burnley
Plymouth v Crystal Palace


All predictions to be in by kick-off (I think that that's 3pm) on Saturday, 17th March.

Leeds United win, I'm back in front of Nirvanite, good weekend so far.

Sheffield Wednesday 2-1 Wolves (Brunt)
Derby 2-1 Cardiff (Howard)
Norwich 1-2 Stoke (Russell)
Preston 3-1 Burnley (Nugent)
Plymouth 1-2 Crystal Palace (Morrison)

after a rather glorious debut to my FF career i now find myself a bottom feeder with only the dropouts between me and complete ignominy...

how did this happen? where did i go wrong? why doesn't god DO something about it?

He has he's put me and B at the top for a change.

Looks like a few Preston, 2-0, Nugent full houses today. Unsurprisingly I'm not one of them.

Just out of interest, can anyone remember the last time I got a full house?

And, more to the point, does anyone care?

B

I'd imagine, and this is me going out on a limb, that aside from Nirvanite who'll like to point and laugh absoloutely nobody cares. Not one single solitary person.

I FORGOT TO POST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

Morwich 1-0 Huckerby's looking good for me it seems...

And Preston 2-0 Burnley (Nugent) for me.

As far as I'm concerned, this season is now all about two desperate struggles to avert utter humiliation: my Bradford boys' battle to avoid dropping into League Two, and my own fight to avoid the unthinkable ignominy of finishing behind Master B. I believe that this week has helped the latter struggle.

Most of my points are from scorers, it's true.

B

Aw, I meant to ask for a pools panel this week - I knew I'd miss the deadline. Any chance?
